Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Thank you, girls! 

Oh, I LOVE him! He reminds me of my mother's old teddybear, who I now have here with me. I love this style, and Ernst is perfect 

Your bears are adorable! I love all of them. The christmasy one on the sled is fabulous! 

Thank you so much Conni! 

I did it! I sewed my very first mini! He's 4", and called "Snö"
I've been so fascinated by the minis posted here, and I never thought I could do it myself. I know it's not perfect, but the fabric is really, really thick. It's wool fabric ment for winter coats  I need to get some good fabric for my next sewed project. In the meantime I should stick with needlefelting.
It was really hard placing the disc in the neck (between the shoulders), and it didnt' turn out really well.... hence the knitted scarf 

The pattern is from a book by Anne Meyer. I will make my own pattern soon 

Awww... He is so cute!

I'm in love!   

Oh, this is so cool! I love that it is poseable. Must have been tons of work! Super cute and cool!

Adorable! I don't know how you do these tine bears! I suppose it takes alot of time an patience. Do you sow everything by hand?

This is really great! Thank you so much for taking the time to make a tutorial. The feet looks great.   

He is so cute! 

She is so sweet! How clever to use the small doilies. Cute!

He is totaly adorable! That is one lucky little baby who will get this one 

Hi again! I think it's getting better for each new try, and this time I 've made this creature, called "I'll give you my heart". It was supposed to be a bear, but he decided he wanted to be a dog from the beginning. No matter what I did, he still looks like a dog

He measures a little over 4 inches standing up, and he is made with norwegian wool core, and the grey fibres are nepal wool. I've bought a lot of norwegian wool, as that is most common here (surprise! ), but I bought this one piece of nepal wool the other day. It was kind of cheap, so I don't know if it's any good. I thought it was a bit difficult to felt, as the fibers were so short... Are nepal wool commonly used for needle felting?

I was also wondering how you joint the small needle felted teddys. I've only jointed my two bears with embroidery-thread, but I don't find it very ideal... Any suggestions for better solutions?

Oh, and thank you for looking!

Hugs!

Thank you both. You are so nice! 

Really cute! I love the color   

Oh, how ADORABLE! 

Hi again! I haven't given up yet, and this is my second attempt at creating a creature. I know it looks a bit weird, like someone punched the poor bunny on the nose... and one cheek is smaller than the other. But I'm learning, and that's what's important! I do think it's a lot of fun!

Hugs,
Malin

wow, those are really tiny! And really cute!

That look on his face makes me melt! So super cute! I love your photo too, the backdrops and the details 

Oh, a gorgeous little sweetheart! Beautiful!

She's adorable! 

She is so cute!
